This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project 
to make the world's books discoverable online. 

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject 
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books 
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover. 

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the 
publisher to a library and finally to you. 

Usage guidelines 

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the 
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to 
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying. 

We also ask that you: 

+ Make non-commercial use ofthefiles We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for 
personal, non-commercial purposes. 

+ Refrainfrom automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine 
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the 
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help. 

+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find 
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it. 

+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just 
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other 
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of 
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner 
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.

PRAEFATIO 



Quaestioaes, quae ad matbematicae fundamenta pertinent, etsi 
hisce temporibus a multis tractatae, satisfacienti solutione et adbuc 
carent. Hic difficultas maxime en sermonis ambiguitate oritur. 

Quare summi interest verba ipsa, quibus utimur attente per- 
pendere. Hoc examen mihi proposui, atque mei studii resultatus, 
et arithmeticae applicationes in hoc scripto expono. 

Ideas omnes quae in arithmeticae principiis occurrunt, signis 
indicavi, ita ut quaelibet propositio his taotum signis enuncietur. 

Signa aut ad logicam pertinent, aut proprie ad arithmeticam. 
Logicae signa quae hic occurrunt, sunt numero ad decem, quamvis 
non omnia necessaria. Horum signorum usus et proprietates non- 
nuUae in priore parte commum sermone explicantur. Ipsorum 
theoriam fusius hic exponere nolui. Arithmeticae signa, ubi oc- 
currunt, explicantur. 

His notationibus quaelibet propositio formam assumit atque 
praecisionem, qua in algebra aequationes gaudent, et a proposi- 
tionibus ita scriptis aliae deducuntur, idque processis qui aeqaa- 
tioaiim resolutiotti aasimilantur. Hoc capnt totius scripti. 

Sique, confectis signis quibus arithmeticae propositiones scribere 
possim, in earum tractatione lisus sum methodo, quam quia et 
in aliis studiis tBoqumda foret, breviter exponam. 

Ex arithmeticae signis quae caeteris, una cum logicae signis 
exprimere licet, ideas significant quas deflnire possumus. Ita 
amnia definivi signa, si quatuor excipias, quae in explicationibns 
§ 1 continentur* Si^ ut puto, haec ulterius reduci nequeunt» ideas 
ipsisexpressas^ideis quae priusnotae stipponiiatur, deflnirenon licet. 



Propositiones, quae logicae operationibus a caeteris deducuntur, 
Bunt theoremata; quae vero non, axiomata vocavi. Axiomata 
hic sunt novecn (§ 1), et signorum, quae definitione carent, pro- 
prietates fundamentales exprimunt. 

In § 1-6 numerorum proprietates communes demonstravi; bre- 
vitatis causa, demonstrationes praecedentibus similes omisi; de- 
monstrationum communem formam immutare oportet ut logicae 
signis exprimantur; haec transformatio interdum difficilior est, 
tamen inde demonstrationis natura clarissime patet. 

In sequentibus § varia tractavi, ut huius methodi potentia magis 
videatur. 

In § 7 nonnulla theoremata, quae ad numerorum theoriam 
pertinent, continentur. In § 8 et 9 rationalium et irrationalium 
definitiones inveniuntur. 

Denique, in § 10, theoremata exposui nonnulla, quae nova 
esse puto , ad entium theoriam pertinentia, quae cl.""' Cantor 
Punktmenge (ensemble de points) vocavit. 

In hoc scripto aliorum studiis usus sum. Logicae notationes et 
propositiones quae in num. II, III et IV continentur, si nonnullas 
excipias, ad multorum opera, inter quae Boolb praecipue, refe- 
renda sunt (*).

Hic meus libellos ut novae methodi specimen habendus est. 
Hisce notationibus innumeras alias propositiones, ut quae ad ra- 
tionales et irrationales pertinenty enunciare et demonstrare pos- 
sumus. Sed, ut aliae theoriae tractentur, nova signa, quae nova 
indicant entia, instituere necesse est. Puto vero his tantum lo- 
gicae signis propositiones cuiuslibet scientiae exprimi posse, dum- 
modo adiungantur signa quae entia huius scientiae representant.

I. De punctuatione, 

Lltteris a, &,... x, «/,... x*y\„ entia indicamus indeterminata quae- 
cumque. Entia vero determinata signis, sive litteris P, K, N,... in- 
dicamus. 

Signa pleruraque in eadem linea scribemus. Ut ordo pateat 
quo ea coniungere oporteat, parenlhesibus ut in algebra, sive 
punctis . : .*. : : etc. utimur. 

Ut forraula punctis divisa, intelligatur, priraura signa quae nuUo 
puncto separantur colligenda sunt, postea quae uno puncto, deinde 
quae duobus punctis, etc. 

Ex. g. sint a, &, c,... signa quaecumque. Tunc ab.cd significat 
{ab){cd); et ab.cdief.gh .-. h signiflcat {{{aX>){cd)){{ef){gh)))n. 

Punctuationis signa oraittere licet si formulae quae diversa pun- 
ctuatione existerent etindera habeant sensum; vel si una tantum 
forraula, et ipsa quara scribere voluraus, sensum habeat. 

Ut ambiguitatis periculum absit, aritmeticae operationum signis . : 
nunquam utimur. 

Parenthesum figura una est ( ); si in eadem forraula, parentheses 
et puncta occurrant, priraura quae parenthesibus continentur, col- 
ligantur. 

II. De prapositionibus. 

Signo P significatur propositio. 

Signura n legitur et. Sint a, b, propositiones ; tunc anb esi si- 
multanea aflJrmatio propositionura a , b. Brevitatis causa, loco a n b 
vulgo scriberaus ab.

Signum a significat falsum, sive absurdum, 

[Signum G signiflcat est consequentta; ita & G a legitur b est con- 
sequentia propositionis a, Sed hoc signo nunquam utimur]. 

Signum o signiflcat deducitur; ita a o & idem signiflcat quod 
& G a. Si propositiones a, 6 entia indeterminata continent a?, j/,..., sci- 
licet sunt inter ipsa entia conditiones, tunc aoo;, y,... 2^ significat:

IV. De cUissibus. 

Signo K significatur classiSy sive entium aggreg^tio. 

Signum e significat est. Ita a e & legitur a est quoddam b ; aeK 
significat a est quaedam classis; aeP significata est quaeda^n 
propositio. 

Loco — (a € &) scribemus a — e 6 ; signum — e significat non est ; 
scilicet : 

44. a^eb. = :^.aeb. 

Signum a,b,cem significat : a, b et c sunt m ; scilicet : 

45. a,b,cem. = :aem. bem.cem. 

Sit a classis; tunc — a significatur classis individuis constituta 
quae non sunt a. 

46. a € K . : i» e — a . = . 0? - e a. 

Sint a, b classes ; a n &, sive a b, est classis individuis constituta

Inversionis signum est [], eiusque usum in sequenti numero ex- 
plicabimus. Hic tantum casus particulares exponimus. 



— XII — 



1. Sit a propositio, indetermlnatura continens x\ tunc scriptura 
[a?] € a, quae legitur ea x quihus a, sive solutiones, vel radices con- 
ditionisa, classem significat individuis constitutam, quae conditioni a 
satis&ciunt. Itaque: 

57. aeP.o:[a?e]a.€K. 

58. a 6 K . Q .-. [a? e] . a? € a : = a. 

59. a € P . .-. a? € . [a? e] a : = a. 

Sint a, p, propositiones indeterminatum continentes x; erit: 

60. [xe]{a&) = {[xe]a){[xe]?). 

61. [a?€]-a = -[a?6]a. 

62. [xe] (a up) = [xe]asj[xe] p. 

63. a 0» p . = . [a? €] a [a? c] p. 

64. a=x?> = '[xe]a = [x e] p. 

2. Sint X, y entia quaecumque; systema ex ente x et ex ente y 
compositum ut novum ens consideramus, et signo (a?, y) indicamus; 
similiterque si entium numerus maior fit. Sit a propositio indeter- 
minata continens x,y; tunc [{x, y) e\ asigniflcatclassem entibus (Xyy) 
constitutam, quae conditioni a satis&ciunt. Erit: 

65. a oa,, y p . = . [{X, 2/) €] a [{x, y)e]^. 

^' [{ccy t^) €j a - == A . = .-. [a? €] . [y €] a - = A : - = A- 

3. Sit xay relatio inter indeterminata x eX y (ex. g. in logica 
relationes a? = 2/, a? — = y, a? o y ; in arithmetica x <y,x>y, etc). 
Tunc signo [e a] ^ ea ^ indicamus, quae relationi xay satisfaciunt. 
Gommoditatis causa , loco [e], signo 9 utimur. Ita 9 a y . = : [^ e] . 
xay, et signum 3 iegitur qui, vel quae. Ex. gr. sit y numerus; 
tunc 9 < 1/ classem indicat numeris x compositam qui conditioni 
X <y satisfaciunt, scilicet, qui sunt minores y, vel simpliciter 
minores y. Similiter, quum signum D signiflcet dUvidit, vel esi di- 
visor, formula aD signiflcat qui dividunt vel divisores. Deducitur 
xe3ay = xay. 

4. Sit a formula indeterminatum continens x. Tunc scriptura 
a?' [a?] a, quae legitur a?' loco x in a subsiituto, formulam indicat 
quae obtinetur si in a, loco x, ai legimus. Deducitur x[x]a = a. 

5. Sit a formula, quae indeterminata x, y^... continet. Tunc 

(a?', t/',...) [x, 1/,...] a. 



— XIII — 



quae legitur al i/,... loco x, y,... in a substttutis, formulam indicat 
quae obtinetur si in a loco a?, y,..., litterae a?' y',... scribantur. Dedu- 
citur (a?, y)[x,y]a = a. 

VI. Z)e /wnc/^one^&t^^. 

Logicae notationes quae praecedunt exprimendae cuiiibet arithme- 
ticae propositioni sufflciunt, iisdemque tantum utimur. Hic nota- 
tiones alias nonnullas breviter explicamus, quae utiles fieri possunt 

Sit s quaedam classis ; supponimus aequalitatem inter entia syste- 
matfl s deflnitam, quae conditionibus satisfaciat: 

a = b. = .b = a. 

a = b.b = c:^,a = c. 
Sit qp signum, sive signorum aggregatus, ita ut si x est ens 
classis Sj scriptura qpa? novum indicet ens; supponimus quoque 
aequalitatem inter entia qp x deSnitam ; et ^i x eX y sunt entia 
classis 5, et est x = y, supponimus deduci posse q>x = q>y. Tunc 
signum q> dicitur esse functionis yraesignum in classi 5, et scri- 
bemus (paF*^. 

S€K.o''(p^^*s. = .\Xyyes.x = y:ox,y*(px = (py. 
Verum si, cum sit x quodlibet ens classis 5, scriptura X(p novum 
indicet ens, et, exx = y deducitur X(p = ycp, tunc dicimus cp esse 
functionis postsignum in classi s et scribemus cp e s'F. 

5 6 K . :: cp € 5 'F . = .-. o?, j/ € 5 . 07 = 2/ : Qo;. y . a?q) = i/(p. 

Exempla. Sit a numerus; tunc a+ est functionis praesignum in 

numerorum classe, et + a est functionis postsignum ; quicumque enim 

est numerus x, formulae a + x et a? + a novos indicant numeros, 

et ex x = y deducitur a-^-x^a-^-y^ eta? + a = y + a. Itaque 

a6N.o:a + .€.F*N. 

a € N . : + a . e . N 'F. 

Sit qp functionis praesignum in classe s. Tunc [qp] y classem signi- 
ficat iis X constitutam, quae conditioni <^x = y satisfaciunt ; scilicet : 
Def. 5 € K . qp 6 F* 5 : D : [qp] y . = . [a? e] (qp a? = y). 



XIV — 



Glassis [cp] y vel unam Tel plura, vel ettam nuUum indrvidanm 
contineFe potest. Erit: 

5 € K . cp 6 F* 5 : : 2/ = q) a? . = . a? € [(p] j/. 
Si vero cp y uno tantum constat individuo, erit y = cp it? . = . ^ 

= W\ y- 

Sit (p functionis postsignum; similiter ponimus: 

5 € K . <p € 5 'F : . • . t/ 1 cp I = I ^ € I («? <P = y )• 

Signum [] dicitur (nversionis sigmum, eiusque usus nonnullos 
in logica iam exposuimus. Nam si a est propositio indeterminatQm 
continens x, atque a est classis individuis a? compostta quae con- 
ditioni a satisfaciunt, erit a?€a. = a, tunc a = [a?6]a, utin V, 1. 

Sit a formula indeterminatum continens x, sitque cp functionis 
praesignum, quod iitterae a? praepositum, formulam a gignat; sci- 
licet sit a = q>x; tunc erit (p = a[x], et si zp' est novum ens, erit 
<p 0?' = a [x] x\ scilicet, si a est formula indeterminatum continene x^ 
tunc a \x] af significat id quod obtinetur si in a, loco a?, a?' po- 
natur. 

Similiter, sit a formula indeterminatum continens x, sitque a^ fun- 
ctionis postsignum, ut a? <p = a; deducitur cp ;= \x\ a ; tunc, si af est 
novum ens, erit x' cp = a/ [x] a, scilicet af [x] a rursum indicat id 
quod obtinetur «i in a, loco a?, a/ legatur, ut in V, 4. 

Alios quoque usus in logica signum f ] liabere potest, quos bre- 
viter esponimus, quum ipsisnon utamur. Sint a et & duae classes; 
tunc [a n ]i) sive b[ n a] classes indicat x, quae conditioni b=anx, 
sive b = xna satisfaciunt. Si & In a non continetur, nulla classis 
huic condltionl satisfacit; si ?^ in a oontinetur, signum b[ n a\ omnes

arabiguitate, uti licet: 
Def. 5€K.q)€5'F.5q)35:o:(pl = (p.q)2 = (p(p.q)3=: q)q)q).etc. 

In deflnitionis hypothesi, si m, n € N, erit 9 (m-\-n) =r (q) w) (q)n) ; 
{(^m)n = fp{m n). 

Si hac definitione in Arithraetica utimur, haec invenimus. Nu- 
raerura qui sequitur nuraerum a signo faciliori a+ indicare pos- 
suraus; tunc a + ^j^ + ^,... et, si b est numerus, a + &, sonsum 
habent a +, a + +,... quod a deflnltione in § 1 patet. Propositionera 6 
in § 1 scribere possumus N + N. Si a, 6, c sunt numeri, tunc 
a:-\-b ,c significat a + &c, et a:X^-c significat a b<^. 

Multis aiiis proprietatibus gaudent functionum signa, praesertim 
si conditioni satisfaciunt : q) x ='q) y .Q,x = y. Functionis signum 
quod huic conditioni satisfacit vocatur a clarissimo Dedekind sfmile 
(ahniich Abbildung). 

Sed his exponendis locus deest. 



Declarationes. 

Deflnitio, vel breviter Def, est propositio formam habensa? = a, 
sive a 3 . a?=a, ubi a est signorum aggregatus sensum habens notum ; 
X est signum, vel signorum aggregatus significatione adhuc carens; 
a vero est conditio sub qua definitio datur. 

Theorenia^ (Theor. vel Th) est propositio quae demonstratur. Si 
theorema forraam habet aop, ubi a et p sunt propositiones, tunc 
a dicitur Hypothesis (Hyp. vel breviter Hp.), p vero Thesis (Thes. 
vel Ts.). Hyp. ac Ts. a Theorematis forma pendent; nara si loco 
aoP scriberaus— Po— a, erit— pHp,et — aTs.; si vero scribemus 
a — 3= At Hp. ac Ts. absunt. 

In quolibet § signura P quod quidam numerus sequatur, propo- 
sitionera indicat eiusdera § hoc numero signatam. Logicae proposi- 
tiones indicantur signo L et propositionis numero. 

Formulae quae in una linea non continentur, in altera linea, nullo 
interposito signo, sequuntur.
